How are you guys there? :-) I hope all of you in a good condition. After watching 'Khurafat' just now, I was called to remember my own ghost story experience. It happened during my diploma years...

That evening, my family and I departed from Terengganu after packing up my stuff for my semester break. We departed from Terengganu quite late, after Asar, among 4:30 to 5:00 pm. At first, the journey quite smooth and in cheerful mood. But it all changed when we reached East West Highway (Lebuhraya Timur Barat) that started from Jeli, Kelantan to Gerik, Perak. This highway is quite isolated and situated deep inside Belum rainforest with scarcely human population. Just imagine, both sides are trees and bushes and hillsides..

It was almost 12 at midnight.. Our car is the only vehicle there. No express buses, no slow lorries. Nothing. Just our car and the darkness. I was almost asleep at the back with my younger brother.. suddenly after a corner, my father said, 'What was that just now?' All of us blurred. He added more,' I saw a snake just now, quite huge and the snake was standing in the middle of the road, I passed it just next no my window..'

We all keep quite and suddenly felt goosebump. My mother put a cassette of Al-Quran reciting and the same time she asked us to recite Ayatul Kursi.

Then, in front of us there was a car, green in colour. The car quite slow and the driver seems sleepy, keeping head down. My father overtake the car and drove on. Then, we saw the same car in front of us. For the second time, my father overtake it. One thing I noticed about the car, the colour and the plate number was same and the driver was in head down position..And it happened again for the third time..

Fortunately, we saw a lorry and we followed it. After that, Alhamdulillah, there was no more disturbance but the we still felt the goosebump when arrived home.

My father also told me, that night, he felt the car was very heavy and going very slow even though we were climbing down the road..

I always saw cats in my hostel and I kind of like the cuteness of these creatures.I found out that almost everywhere we can found cats. :-) At my house, we called an adopted cat of us by the name, Chemong. Hehe. The term we borrowed from P. Ramlee's movie, Do Re Mi. Cats quite fascinates me.I browse the internet and found few facts about them. Let's share about them!

Ailurophilia is the "love of cats."

Cats have 290 bones in their bodies, and 517 muscles.

There are three body types for a cat. Cobby type is a compact body, deep chest, short legs and broad head. The eyes are large and round. Muscular type is a sturdy body and round, full-cheeked head. Foreign type is a slender body, with long legs and a long tail. The head is wedge-shaped, with tall ears and slanting eyes.

Sometimes your cat will find it difficult to find the treats you throw him on the floor. The reason is because cats can't see directly under their own nose.

A cat will amost never "meow" at another cat. This sound is reserved for humans.

The average age for an indoor cat is 15 years, while the average age for an outdoor cat is only 3 to 5 years.

A falling cat will always right itself in a precise order. First the head will rotate, then the spine will twist and the rear legs will align, then the cat will arch its back to lessen the impact of the landing.

Cats are born with blue eyes. They change at approximately 12 weeks of age.

A cat uses it's whiskers to tell if the space they are trying to enter is big enough for them.

In English, cat is "cat." In French, cat is "Chat." In German, your cat is "katze." The Spanish word for cat is "gato," and the Italian word is "gatto." Japanese prefer "neko" and Arabic countries call a cat a "kitte."

A cat that bites you after you have rubbed his stomach, is probably biting out of pleasure, not anger.

Today I want to share my opinion and little bit about my experience. You can guess what I will talk about based on the topic, isn't it? Hehe. :-)

I know this topic is quite popular and somehow increasing. I don't call it as a trend because if is it a trend, this phenomenon will slowly decrease. This topic, having an older girl as a spouse,or wife and girlfriend is already being discussed by Izamir Ridzwan in here. I myself have the experience of having an older girl as my girlfriend. Okay,before I go further, for those who doesn't like this topic, please check out from this entry.;-) Hehe.

Maybe some people will say this,hey, when you married her, and she will get older,then you will find other girls. For me, if she know how to take care me very well, I don't bother about replacing her. From my experience, older girls understand you more. Luckily, my miss A didn't control me at all. :-) She doesn't has this queen control attitude. Alhamdulillah.

Next, she understand me very well. She rarely asked to be spoiled and really like the idea of being an independent girl who doesn't want to burden her beloved guy.

That's all I guess. :-) I hope no one will throw up after reading this entry. :-) Hehe.

Public speaking, yes, we can guess what is it. Speaking in public of course. :-) Anyone can speak, but not everybody can speak in public, right? Even I myself having trouble speaking in front of the class. But, in our course, we had to attend a class which is public speaking class. The only course that doesn't has any final exam. You come into the class and speak at the front. :-)

Today's lecture is about sharing what we have about public speaking.

Here's the tips that I found about this public speaking...

1. Prepare your speech material.

2. Practice, practice and practice.

3. Know your audience.

4. Know your surrounding.

5. Relax. Take your time and greet your audience.

6. Arrange your main points. Use discourse markers.

For example: Firstly, Next.

7. Support your main points. You can give definitions, examples or statistics.

I will be looking forward for any criticisms and comments from all of you in future. :-)

Assalamualaikum..
Just want to scratch a little in this entry. :-) Why some people very jealous to others? I know, jealousy is in human nature, but we can control it and turn it into a positive way. On the contrary, these jealousy individuals are not just jealous, but they express it in words and action, of course in negative way.. These people, they are like those empty tins or cans that we can found along the roads or the sidewalk. The definition of empty tin can be found in an entry from Ayuni's blog, click here if you want to know about it.I bet she share the same opinion with me. Sometimes I wonder, it is better if in this world, people just have a positive jealousy and be positive to each other... :-)

Assalamulaikum..
Today my group had presented a sketch or role play about language process, or more precisely, mental processing. We came out the idea of doing a role play rather having a normal microsoft powerpoint presentation because we were asked by the lecturer to make our presentation more interesting. Our group manage to practice and prepare for the sketch quite a short period of time but it is tiring. After the presentation, our group had a quite positive responses from the audience, a lot of arguments relating our topic with Aphasia(language disorder).
But then, the conclusion that my lecturer made today regarding our topic is quite simple.I quote his words' Actually, what you friends have presented just now is just a part of Broca's aphasia. That's it.'
Huh! A simple explanation from him... :-)
Definitely words from an expert! :-)

Hi again to all bloggers. From the topic, I think you can guess what I will talk about. :-) Of course not by meaning my species is homo sapien, but the other 'species', which is men, boys and guys. Here is a list of fact about my species..

It's been a while since my last entry. I'm in the process of experimenting Adobe Photoshop cs5. The usage of the software was inspired by Miss A and she gladly taught me the basic. The rest, I do it myself. And the result is my new header. I know it is just a simple one, but I need some comment and critics from my blogger friends. Any comment? I would appreciate it. Please do so. :-)

Assalamualaikum..
Hi to all my fellow bloggers. Tonight, I'm struggling with my assignment. (Warning: do not do last minute works like me) :-) By the way, I want to share with all of you, my trip to the southernmost tip of the Mainland Asia . Don't believe me? Let me tell you the story.
Actually last year,on September if I'm not mistaken, my family and I, my cousins and their family, and our grandma went to a trip to the place called Tanjung Piai, Kukup, Johor. Johoreans, are you guys familiar with this place? :-) This place was known because of its location that at the very tip of Mainland Asia. This place was a mangrove area where it was preserved due to the variety of flora and fauna. Lots of crabs, monkeys, 'ikan tembakul' and horseshoe crabs as well. :-) For the nature lover, it is a best place to go to.
Let's see the pictures:

Today, a friend of mine,a FKI student, Abdul Moin had already passed away. He passed away after being in coma state for almost a day. It all started when I heard the news that he involved in an accident. The accident took place at the same place that I also had an accident.
I still remember a week before the Chinese New Year holiday, I talked to him after my last year experience.
I still remember the words that I said to him. 'Hang bawak moto elok-elok. Cukuplah aku je yang eksiden'.
Then, today, when I heard the news that he is no longer here, I'm numbed..
Ya Allah, bless his soul..

Al-Fatihah to him and to all our Muslim relatives that no longer here..

Hye there! :-) Despite of the abundance of assignments, I still manage to 'steal' some time watching one of my favourite action hero cartoon. The Batman! :-) Why Batman? For me, he is more closely related to a normal human being compared with other superheroes. He has no superpower at all. He fight crimes using fighting skills, his intelligence and not to mention, a whole collection of gadgets. He still a normal human, Bruce Wayne, having his wealthy life as a successful businessman. One thing about Bruce Wayne that I admire, he is very interested with anything that related with charity works. He also sponsored Gotham's Children Hospital. I know, he just a cartoon comic story, but sometimes we can learn something from any cartoons if we watch them attentively. For example, never stingy to do charity works. Any objection anyone? :-)

How are you? Ni hao ma? :-) It is another bookworm entry. As usual, I will pick my favourite writer, Ramlee Awang Murshid. The title of his novel is Mikhail. This story is about a man named Mikhail, who lost his family during his teenager days, hunted back all his family killers after almost 16 years as a refugee. He was taken care by an American, Dicken. Dicken was the person who responsible to train Mikhail as a pofessional killer during his runaway period. Mikhail had a weird 'illness', his eyes can't have direct contact with any flash of lights, especially sunlight. This novel is more likely tells us about an agenda lead by a strong power and influenced by money. Money and power are the symbol of this evil. Mikhail is their death god. Merely, Mikhail is not only just a name..

Assalamualaikum..
Yesterday is a dusty and sweaty day. Why? This is because the hostel I'm staying is having a renovation. Yes, renovation on new bed and new locker. It's quite irritating because for those who studying in East coast Malaysia, Friday is a resting day for us. So, the renovation went on, in our block, floor by floor. The bed and locker wrecking ceremony started at 9 a.m when a hostel staff entering our hostel, banging each rooms. Luckily we already packing our stuffs. Then, the wrecking ceremony begin. Dam! Dam! At last, approximately at 5 pm, officially we got new bed and cupboard. It really was a dusty day as during the renovation process, we got to cover our mouth and nose. These are the pictures of the new bed and cupboard. :-)

Assalamualaikum.. It was stressing day for me. I got this problem with lending books from the library, my matric card was blocked, but then thankfully miss A coming to the rescue, kind enough to borrow books for me. :-) After almost 20+ years of life, I am still wondering, am I good guy or the bad guy? I always want to be like The Autobots, which are the good guys. But sometimes, I feel like becoming the bad guys, The Decepticons. My innerself still struggling for both sides.. I usually met situation that needs me to become The Decepticons, but my instincts always tell me, hey, you should behave like The Autobots, doing good deeds even though you are ill-treated..

Assalamulaikum. Hye there! Hehe. What a tiring day I have! It my first time I slept at 9:30pm. Hehe. After a 4 hours of lectures and a hectic day, plus a badminton session at the afternoon at 5, for the first time, I'm tired. I admit, I am not fit as I used to be. I woke up at 10:30pm, having my supper and printing the journals. Then, stress releasing session! For my brain, of course! Hehe. As an average teenage boy, I couldn't resist myself playing CS, Counter Strike, together with my roomate.. Quite noisy both of us then.. Hehe.

Assalamulaikum. Hye! Two days of emptiness because there are no students coming back to the hostel. Somehow this morning I feel like listening to hindustan songs despite my huge interest to transformers. So, I downloaded quite a few of them. Hehe. I only like two hindustan movies which are Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Mohabbatein. Just sharing. :-)

Assalamualaikum. Hye again! Hehe. This time I would like to share about high heels.. Ladies, take note. :-)

Research is increasingly demonstrating that poor footwear contributes a great deal to foot, joint and posture problems. In fact, we don’t need science to tell us this – common sense tells us that there are bound to be problems when we force our feet into unnatural positions and place great stress on them.

Common foot problems include bunions, hammertoes, calluses and corns, flat feet and high arches. Some foot problems are exacerbated by medical conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, arthritis or poor circulation.

Foot pain can also be due to acute injuries caused by accidents or trauma. These injuries may include broken bones, muscle strains, sprains, and joint dislocations.

At the same time, ill-fitting footwear not only leads to foot injuries, but posture and joint problems as well. The wrong kind of shoes can cause you to stand or walk incorrectly, resulting in loss of muscle tone in your core muscles. When your core muscles aren’t strong enough, it can eventually lead to back, neck and joint problems.

Walking on high heels puts abnormal stress on both the front and the back of the knee. This kind of repetitive stress to the knee elevates the risk for osteoarthritis.

If you wear high heels for a long time, the tendons in your soles will eventually shorten – and then you reach a point where it’s only comfortable for you to wear high heels, creating a vicious cycle of pain causing more pain.

Some research also shows that other types of flat shoes may also be bad for us, such as certain athletic shoes that are heavily padded.

A 1997 study by researchers at McGill University in Montreal found that the more padding a running shoe has, the more force the runner hits the ground with. This is because we instinctively plant our feet harder to cancel out the shock absorption of the padding.

When our feet hit the ground with more force, it places more stress on the knee – leading again to the risk of osteoarthritis. The effects of osteoarthritis may not surface until many years later in your life, by which time you may need injections or surgery.

Assalamualaikum.. Hi bloggers. Today i'm back at the hostel. Kind a bit sorry to my family. We didn't have much time together to spend. Actually this morning I was supposed to attend an event, but then, few things pop out last minute, I had to cancel the trip. It was kind of regret because I come early to the hostel just to attend this event. :-( What a pity! By the way, I'm not lonely anymore in my room because I have my roomate, Jeffrey. He is a Sarawakian, just like Squall. Jeffrey is a Malay-Iban mix. He is quite handsome, little bit cheerful and an understanding friend. I'm happy having he as my roomate. :-)
